About the God thing... I can just imagine a pile of religious groups stabbing this poor game in the face.....


Bah, the Catholic church is already worrying themselves over the Golden Compass so I don't think I'm gonna worry about that right now. XD

Nah. Lots of games have a "fighting against God" theme. I've never seen any of them get any attention from crazy fundies. NiGHTS is pretty mild in that area compared to MANY games. XP


I agree with you completely here.

I'm Christian too, and I just think Wizzy's giving himself airs. XD But I know a group who'd likely FREAK if they heard that. Heck, they don't even like CS Lewis or Pokemon! O_o;

Even so, it all adds up to Wizeman's character, and I'm honestly liking it more and more!

Tell him I want one. XD I never get nightmares!

I agree with your "god" point as well. Not Biblical at all, for sure, just a title of utmost power.

Exactly. I just kind of had the thought, that since the Church seems to be getting itself riled up over fiction these days, that they'd see this as an offender as well.

Pah. I'm still gonna play it. >3 Love ya Wizzy.

I agree as well... some people believe in many Gods and not just one... even gods of nightmares and dreams.. i think somewhere dreams and nightmares were brothers or something. haha. it's all very interesting and i never thought of it as biblical at all when Wizeman calls himself a God... think ti's more fitting then a DEMON.

Yah, but if SEGA ever creates NiGHTS 3,than they need to make a god of dreams,unless, of course,NiGHTS is the god of dreams...

I'm Catholic, I go to church every Sunday, Catholic school once a week, say my bedtime prayers, and everything else, and I have to say that the whole Wizeman god thing isn't that big a deal. He's just a little overconfident because he can make stuff. Geez, I can make things pop out of nowhere in my dreams, too.

I believe that he actually IS the god of Nightmares. He IS the creator of Nightmare, like how religions always say that their god/s is/are the creator/s. I'm an atheist, so I'm not 100% sure on all that religion stuff, but I believe that Wizeman IS the god of Nightmare. He created all of it, and he has god-like power. In fact, his power level is OVER NINE THOUSAND!! XD

Writing, drawing, art in any way, shape, or form, hard rock music, dancing wildly even though I can't dance for crap. I write poetry and lyrics (although they're not very good T__T) and comedy movies. I love the Dreamcast podcast that DiGi and TRiPPY put on. I also enjoy thinking outside the box. I'm what is known as a Meathead. I can laugh at myself, think outside the box, and smile. Meatheads are smarter than your average Joe, with much more common sense and the rare ability to find creative solutions to problems. My idol is a man named Jimmy Dolittle. Look him up ^.~
WUT?! 9000?!

I do have one confession, I actually got ticked when Wizeman called himself a 'god'. First time I heard him call himself that, I was like,
"OH, HECK NO! *throws controller at screen*"
It just gets me ticked when people people call themselves a god, and it still slightly bothers me a bit when I hear Wizeman calling himself something like that.

On a lighter note, Wizeman's battle theme= EPIC WIN, MAN. EPIC WIN. PERIOD.

I really disliked that he was completely destroyed in the extended ending.
The idea that Wizeman is an evil that can be vanquished just... eh. Too corny.
I was digging the whole "I cannot not be truly destroyed! I will exist so long as there exists darkness in the hearts of humans!" bit in the regular ending.
Then they ruined it :|

Yeah that was pretty pants because people who don't think about what he said too much will just think he's dead. I think the reason you see NiGHTS again at the end is supposed to be backing up his ramblings though, i mean a world without nightmares wouldn't work because people would be afraid of nothing and the world would end up imploding by its own means.
I'm glad they actualy mentioned that though, because if Wizeman just bit the dust it would have been really rubbish.
Perhaps him 'dying' was just him vanishing from Will and Helens personal dreams, them conquering their fears in a very self important way.

Yeah, I noticed how Will's accent slid in out out of british accents. Everybody else managed to stay fairly well in the accent. makes me wonder if sega was too lazy to hire actually british VAs to do it... but still, I like exagerating NiGHTS britishness (see (epic fail) video to figure out what I mean)

I thought that too. But then I figured when they showed NiGHTS at the end, on top of the clock tower, that Wizeman must still be out there. Or maybe I just don't want it to be further ruined. XD

Total epic fight the beginning scene was perfect, except for Will "I do have...free will :0" I resisted a face palm at this line. I dunno what having daddy issues has to do with free will. Anyway badass scene good ending.
Sephiroth? What's a Sephiroth?
